Sponsor a Volunteer and help unlock the incredible power of people
Girls born into poor families in Nepal face many challenges, such as poverty, discrimination, forced marriage and domestic abuse. But for girls with disabilities like Rabina, life is even harder and the risks much greater.
Will you sponsor a volunteer today and help another girl like Baano get essential support?
Many girls with disabilities spend their lives in isolation, unable to communicate with those around them. They cannot report abuse or access support.
Inequality and discrimination in schools mean that teachers are often not willing to help, or they don’t know to support their needs. Sadly, this means that most girls with disabilities will never reach their potential or escape poverty.
VSO expert volunteers are helping girls in Banke, Nepal, access education and create a better future for themselves. Volunteers identify girls’ needs and provide tailored support for them, their families, and their teachers, to fight inequality and create lasting change. With your support, girls can stay safe and learning, and build a better future.
But there are thousands of girls we still need to urgently reach. Will you sponsor a volunteer today?
